With his life and liberty at stake, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is to stay under the protection of the Ecuadorian government while his asylum appeal is considered, says lawyer Susan Benn from the Julian Assange Defense Fund.

Ray McGovern, a former CIA analyst, talks to RT. He says unless Assange is granted asylum, US prosecutors getting their hands on him is a done deal. And considering the "draconian espionage act of 1917" under which he would be tried, getting to Ecuador becomes a life and death matter for the WikiLeaks founder.

From the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street, the youth of today are sending a clear message: they are tired of business as usual in politics. In Mexico, there is a growing uncertainty on who will be the country's next leader and hundreds of students have started protesting the current PRI party.

Well it looks like Congress will act just in the nick of time to preventstudent loan interest rates from doubling from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent on July1, but there's more. Starting Sunday students will have to start payinginterest rates on loans while they are still in school and will no longer begiven a grace period to start paying off their debt once they graduate. RobertApplebaum, founder of ForgiveStudentLoanDebt.com, joins us with his take on howCongress is screwing college students.StudentLoanDebt.com, joins us with his take on how Congress is screwing college students.

The protesters, carrying placards which read "Rise up against the restart" and "The nuclear era is over," lined the streets around Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda's residence in central Tokyo as police watched on, according to an AFP photographer.

The main entrance to the residence was seen guarded by armoured vehicles and barricades of uniformed police.

Organisers quoted in local media estimated turnout exceeded 100,000 people, over double the turnout they estimated at a similar protest last week.

[...]

The demonstration had been called by liberal writers Takashi Hirose and Satoshi Kamata in an online message which spread on Twitter and Facebook in what was likened by a popular tabloid to the "Arab Spring," a wave of protests that topped governments in the Arab world last year.

The crowd blocked off a six-lane road and adjoining streets leading to the Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda's official residence in central Tokyo. Police parked five armoured riot control buses in front of the entrance to prevent protesters entering the compound.

Several helicopters circled overhead as the sun went down on a clear, early summer evening.

The protest capped weeks of sporadic demonstrations and was the biggest gathering in central Tokyo since Noda said this month the restart of two reactors in western Japan was necessary to avoid damaging the economy.

All of the country's 50 nuclear reactors were taken off line after an earthquake and tsunami hit the Fukushima nuclear power plant on the northeast coast on March 11 last year, triggering the world's worst atomic accident since Chernobyl in 1986.

Earlier this year the US government seized MegaUpload founder Kim Dotcom's assets after his website was accused of facilitating copyright infringement. The New Zealander's home was raided, his website taken down and he was taken into custody. However, New Zealand courts have ruled that the raid was illegal and search warrants were too vague.

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange remains trapped in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London as he awaits a decision on his request for political asylum. On Thursday, British police requested Assange turn himself in so the extradition process to Sweden can begin, but he has rejected the notion.

Everyone knows that the US is waging a war in Afghanistan, but is Latin America next? Recently the Drug Enforcement Agency shot and killed a drug suspect in Honduras and DEA agents have been working in conjunction with the local authorities. The US is being blamed for killing innocent people in the country, but should the US be involved in Latin America? Adrienne Pine, professor at American University, joins us with more.

Occupy DC was one of the longest standing branches of the Occupy Wall Street movement in America until The National Park Service police bulldozed the headquarters back in early February. But now a resurgence of occupiers has begun. Tents are back in McPherson Square in the nation's capital. So is Occupy DC here to stay? RT's Abby Martin has more.

The US Department of Homeland Security has already spent $240 million on the drone project for the US Border Patrol. Each predator drone costs $18 million to build and can run $3,200 per hour just to fly. So are flying robots in the sky effective for patrolling America's borders? Trevor Timm, activist for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, gives us his take.

*Matt Davis, a Michigan attorney who was once the state Republican Party's spokesman, sent out an email that asked whether armed rebellion would be justified in the wake of the court's decision. According to Michigan Capital Confidential, a local news service that originally reported the missive, Davis sent it "moments after the Supreme Court ruling to numerous new media outlets and limited government activists."

House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Darrell Issa has confirmed that wiretap applications reveal in-depth detail on the Fast and Furious operation, including evidence showing that "agents were well aware that large sums of money were being used to purchase a large number of firearms, many of which were flowing across the border."

Roll Call reports today that Issa released details concerning the wiretaps in the House. His disclosure is protected by the Speech or Debate Clause in the Constitution, which offers immunity for Congressional speech on the floor.

According to Darrell Issa's letter sent to Maryland Democrat Rep. Elijah Cummings on May 24, not only did ATF officials know about the purchases, they oversaw activity by straw purchasers and ended their surveillance without interdicting the guns.

"Although ATF was aware of these facts, no one was arrested, and ATF failed to even approach the straw purchasers," Issa's letter states. "Upon learning these details through its review of this wiretap affidavit, senior Justice Department officials had a duty to stop this operation. Further, failure to do so was a violation of Justice Department policy."

As we noted on June 22, Obama lied to the American people on March 23, 2011, when he said that neither he nor Attorney General Holder authorized the effort to arm the drug cartels in Mexico. Several weeks later, on May 3, Holder lied to Congress. He said he did not know who approved Fast and Furious. He also lied when he said he "probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks."

Issa talks about contempt and criminal case against Holder.On Thursday, House Republicans held Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress. The House made the historic move after Holder refused to divulge additional documents on the gun-running operation and Obama invoked executive privilege in an attempt to block the request for more information.

White House spokesman Jay Carney said during a press conference aboard Air Force One on Friday that Obama's executive privilege assertion makes the contempt citation and any criminal investigation irrelevant.

The weapons were responsible not only for the murder of federal agent Brian Terry, but also countless Mexicans caught up in the drug cartel war.

Members of Terry's family have accused the Obama White House of "lying" and "hiding something."

After a tough night of wrangling, EU leaders have agreed to set up a new authority - tasked with keeping sinking banks afloat. And to do that, the new agency will be given access to Europe's mammoth bailout funds - stocked in a large part by taxpayer money. This exact function was previously carried out by governments. But now, the EU can bailout a nation's banks - without adding to the government's debt levels - at least on the books. It's something that Germany strongly opposed, but was forced to relent on due to Spanish and Italian insistence. Nigel Farage, a member of the European Parliament and leader of the UK Independence Party, believes that it's Germany who plays the deciding role in these talks.

On July 1, student loan interest rates are set to double, but it seems that Congress will step in just in time to prevent this from happening. Although doubling interest rates was eluded, other parts of the deal will have students paying interest on loans while they are in school and immediately after they graduate. Maxwell John Love, a student at University of Wisconsin -- Madison, joins us with more.

On Thursday, the Obama administration achieved another historic victory. The Supreme Court decided to maintain Obama's landmark health care law often referred to as "Obamacare." The controversial legislation has divided the country because critics feel that providing insurance coverage for an additional 30 million Americans doesn't mean that the country will be overall healthier. So is Obama just playing politics? Nick Gillespie, editor in chief for Reason.com, joins us with his take on the ruling.

With growth in Europe having been stomped out by austerity, the union's leaders are gathering today in an attempt to kindle a new spark. But just how - is proving divisive. The weaker nations want Eurobonds - effectively, a piggy back ride on Germany's cheap interest rates. But Berlin is having none of it. Johan Van Overtveldt, editor-in-chief of Trends Magazine, says Germany is making a point.

Three in four Pakistanis now consider the U.S. an enemy - according to a new survey published in America.

"It seems more like a headline from the satirical newspaper The Onion, but the Republican Party of Texas recently published its party platform, a report that - among other things - calls for a ban on teaching critical thinking skills in Texas schools because of its "focus on behavior modification" that has "the purpose of challenging the student's fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority." That's just one of the many startling positions adopted by the state's Republican Party at its recent convention in Fort Worth...".

With over half of the country's income taxes being spent on the military industrial complex, one would think that the money is being put to good use. The US military has some of the best equipment around the world, but did you ever wonder what happens to all that gear once the troops come home.

There is a growing movement in America that could potentially close the ever growing wealth inequality gap. The proposed "Robin Hood tax" would be a fee charged anytime a transaction on Wall Street is made.

How did Bain Capital generate their profits under Mitt Romney? The 2012 Republican Presidential candidate has touted his experience there but the games Bain played with jobs, fees, and debt would likely disgust most voters. The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur explains.

The media is all over the Sandusky case and I guess it makes people feel better to thing the Bad Guy has been caught and justice has been served, but evidence is coming out that Sandusky didn't just molest a few kids- he was pimping them out to the rich and powerful. There have been so many similar cases in the past, where large pedophilia rings have been covered up, with a few scapegoats offered up to make it look like justice has been served- but it never has and these operations continue to flourish around the world.

When you turn on your television it is obvious that the mainstream media's news coverage is superficial. With the decline of news ratings in recent years, many are seeking real news through alternative sources. So where can audiences go for real news?

"A conservative radio host says that the Catholic nuns who have embarked on a nine-state bus tour to protest the injustice of Rep. Paul Ryan's (R-WI) proposed budget deserve to be beaten with a handgun because they "threw the first punch."

"Do you guys, do you have any power to pull the nuns on the bus over and pistol whip them?"...".

Bush Attorney General Alberto Gonzales gets confronted by Luke Rudkowski of wearechange.org and Abby Martin of mediaroots.org about torture.

SOURCE: Jan 22, 2002 - Department of Justice memo to White House and Defense Department Counsels regarding the application of the War Crimes Act and the Geneva Conventions

The 37-page memo, written by Assistant Attorney General Jay S. Bybee, is addressed to White House Counsel Alberto R. Gonzales and General Counsel at the Pentagon William J. Haynes II.

The memo states that President Bush is not bound by international obligations to Afghanistan because it is a "failed state," and that therefore the War Crimes Act of 1984 and the Geneva Convention do not apply to prisoners from the Afghanistan conflict.

Turkey has sent troop reinforcement to the Syrian border, after Erdogan's warning that soldiers approaching the border will be treated as target, the Turkish daily Zaman reported citing the Cihan news agency.

It said 15 military vehicles, including tanks and cannons, were dispatched to the border from Diyarbakir.

Unless you've been trapped in a cave or your television has been stuck on MSNBC, chances are good that you are aware of a growing scandal known as Operation Fast & Furious. Chances are equally good that you don't know all of the intricate details of Fast & Furious, as it has been the practice of this administration and many in leadership positions to confuse the public, convolute the facts, and downplay the murderous scandal that leads directly to the highest levels of this administration.

Its not possible for a 1 hour fuel accelerated class A/B office fire create enough energy to keep steel molten for weeks after the collapses unless there was additional energy, according to the laws of thermodynamics. Heat always transfers from hot to cold and you will never get more energy (heat) out of a system than you have available. A very large release of energy, far more than potential in a poorly combusted five story office fire, is the only way this is possible.
